This is the cover for a new fantasy/steampunk series, Spiritwalker by Kate Elliott from Orbit, with Cold Magic being book 1, to be released this September. I like this cover a lot, it’s very pleasing to the eye – I like the font, and the gold swirl gives it a magical feel and the machinery in the background hints at the steampunk elements. I think the cover also gives a young adult vibe to the book, although I’m not sure if it is YA. You can find more information on the Orbit website. So what do you think?
As they approach adulthood, Cat Barahal and her cousin Bee think they understand the society they live in and their place within it. At a select academy they study new airship technologies and the dawning Industrial Revolution, but magical forces still rule. Drawn into a labyrinth of politics involving blood and old feuds, Cat is betrayed by her family and forced to marry a powerful Cold Mage. As she is carried away to live a new life, fresh dangers threaten her every move and secrets form a language she cannot read. At least, not yet.
